BUILDING LARGER CARBOHYDRATES
Carbohydrates are made up of chains of individual monomer components joined together to form a polymer.
Single monomer = monosaccharide.
2 monosaccharides joined = disaccharide.
3 or more = polysaccharide.

POLYSACCHARIDES - A CHAIN OF MONOSACCHARIDES 1. Glycogen- a storage compound in animals.
We store glycogen in liver and muscle cells. The monomer unit is α gluclose.
2. Starch-a storage compound in plants. We eat this in foods such as bread and potatoes. Also chains of α gluclose.
3. Cellulose – makes plant cell walls. When we eat fruit / vegetables we eat this. It forms fibre/roughage in our diet. It consists of chains of β glucose

BENEDICT’S TEST FOR A REDUCING SUGAR.TheoryNeed to know this for practical exam and written exams. All monosaccharides and some disaccharides, (like maltose)
are reducing sugars.Receiving an electron is reduction.A reducing sugar is a sugar that can donate an electron to (or
reduce), another chemical, in this case Benedict’s reagent.Benedict’s contains Copper II sulphate and is alkaline.Cu2+ ions from the copper sulphate are reduced by the –CHO
Aldose or C=O Ketone groups in reducing sugars to form Cu+ ions.
When heated with a reducing sugar pale blue Benedict’s solution forms an insoluble red precipitate of Copper I oxide.

TEST FOR NON-REDUCING SUGARS
Some disaccharides such as sucrose are non-reducing sugars. This means they do not change the colour of Benedict’s when heated. To test a non-reducing sugar it must be broken down into its monosaccharide components by hydrolysis. These monosaccharides can then be tested with Benedicts as a reducing sugar.
![Page 22: C ARBOHYDRATES. L EARNING OUTCOME 3.1.2 The digestive system provides an interface with the environment. Digestion involves enzymic hydrolysis producing.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cda5503460f949a39c1/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
METHOD
The non-reducing sugar is first hydrolysed by boiling with hydrochloric acid so that it will be broken down into its monosaccharides.
These can then reduce Benedict’s reagent in the normal way.
So a non-reducing sugar is identified by a negative reaction to Benedict’s before hydrolysis and a positive result after hydrolysis.

METHOD
Carry out the reducing sugar test. If negative then in a boiling tube, add 2cm3 of dilute
hydrochloric acid, to a sample to be tested, mix the solution and heat in a hot water bath for 2-3 mins
Then add sodium hydroxide, to the boiling tube until
the solution is neutral, Add until the fizzing stops. (This is important because Benedict’s is not effective in acid conditions).
Carry out the reducing sugar test again. This time it
will be positive
